Since 1948, #Palestinians have heroically mounted one #resistance effort after another, all unleashing disproportionate #Israeli reprisals and a demonization of the Palestinians as terrorists.

The repeated #revolts, as Said noted, gave the Palestinians the right to tell their own story, the “permission to narrate.”
